1. Another word for "subculture" that doesn't sound quite so scientific, allowing it to be used in daily conversation. Used this way it usually has an adjective modifying it: the "indy scene" or the "hardcore scene" or the "emo scene." When someone refers to a particular "scene," they're talking about everything - the people, the places, the fashion, the music, and the trends.

2. A tongue-in-cheek reference to the trends and fashions of the various scenes. Many of these subcultures were built around countercultural ideals and nonconformist attitudes; the fact that trends even exist is humorous irony, and using "scene" as an adjective originally intended to lampoon that.

3. A trend of sorts that evolved from the indy, emo, and hardcore scenes (see the first definition); basically, anything that can be sold at Hot Topic. As events like Warped Tour - and artists like Avril Lavigne - became popular, the trends and fashions of these three scenes (and a few others) were gradually amalgamized and commericalized to create the generic "scene" monkier. Someone who is "scene" generally borrows from the various subcultures and combines them together - you can tell they're part of *a* scene, but no one is quite sure *what* scene. It is important to note that this use of "scene" refers to a fashion trend - it isn't a subculture in its own right, because it has no music, venues, or attitudes of its own to live on after it loses popularity.

4. An ironic insult toward followers of the "scene" trend outlined in 3. Calling someone "scene" brings up images of Avril Lavigne, Hot Topic, Good Charlotte, and, more recently, Myspace; it implies that he or she is a fair-weather fan, conforming to be popular or to fit in. In that sense, it is related to the term poseur. It also implies being more worried about the more visible icons of a particular scene (the fashion and language, for example) than the music that the scene is founded on. Calling someone a scenester basically means the same thing.

1. Atreyu is a relative newcomer to the hardcore scene, but is developing a rabid cult fanbase.

2. Wow... a Thundercats shirt, crotch-hugging faded jeans, and a devilock... how very scene of you. Not to mention your ratty Converse shoes or your Know Your Mushrooms armband.

3. Be more scene. Shop at Hot Topic.

4. Enjoy being scene while it lasts, because Myspace isn't enough to keep it going once the next fad hits.

basically, scene kids are anyone who conforms to the latest trends. they think they are individuals who are different from everyone, but they are really just copying people, and being posers.They should try to find there own style instead of copying everyone elses. most scene kids have a myspace, and flaunt themselves around to everyone else. they think they dress cooler than everyone else, and they think they start all the newest trends (like footless tights) even though those have been around since the 80's. they also think that all the bands they listen to are bands no one has ever heard of before, and if anyone else says they like that certain band, they will automatically think the person is a poser, even if they really arent. they take hundreds of pictures of themselves, trying to show how "punk" or "emo" they are. real punk or emo kids probably dont even have a myspace. They also like to use little "x's" in random words when they write.

scene kids can go get a life.

scene kid: "OMG!!! i am like so totally hardxcore and scene.
true punk/emo: shut up. u suck. stop being such a poser.
scene kid: what the hell! i am punk, and totally scene.
true punk/emo: riiiiiiight. you think that.

In today's society, these are the creepy kids without a life. They spend all their time online, generally on Neopets, MySpace, LJ, etc. etc. with a large community with lots of others like them. They have usernames like "xmyxheartxisxbrokenx." Scene kids are often seen overusing "x's" and semicolons, as well as underscores.

Scene, is a cheap imitation of 'emo', as 'emo' is a cheap imitation of goth. They think they are nonconformist and say that they have low self esteem, they like to take pictures, spend hours on makeup and hair, write poetry, write music, form bands that will last five minutes before the scene moves onto the next five second band and cut for attention. They seem to have manifested over night through 'myspace' and spend hours online being 'depressed'. I think it is highly unlikely that any of these kids know what true depression is like because they are usually happy to insult other groups of scenesters or random individuals for not looking like them. There seems to be small wars between them when at gigs because it is an excuse for every scene kid to dress up to his or her full 'potential', shall we say, and they usually hang around in groups being miserable and scowling at other groups. Let us hope they have the good sense to listen to the music at some point in their lives because that is what keeps the rest of us going, not petty wars over hair and makeup and who's cuts are bigger and deeper.

Basically an unscientific way of making clones. Everyone in their "clique" meets at the mall and just chills. They travel in large packs because if they get in a fight they will lose misbribally and mess up their hair, but will look like they have friends in the process. Scene is one step below transfestite.

Hey, I'm scene. I deserve to get kicked in the face by complete strangers.

Basic characteristics of male "scene" kids are:
-Choppy, messy hair, usually dyed black or in strange colors.
-Tight girl pants.
-Lots and lots of hoodies.
-Band shirts.
-Chucks or any other tight, generic shoe.
-Stud belts and/or bracelets.
-Anything that can be used to make them look more like girls.
-Spend 2 or more hours a day on their hair.

Basic characteristics of female "scene" kids are:
-Choppy, messy hair, usually dyed black or in strange colors.
-Tight guy pants OR (Rarely, girl pants).
-Lots and lots of hoodies.
-Band shirs.
-Chucks or any other tight, generic shoe.
-Stud belts and/or bracelets.
-Anything that can be used to make them look more like guys.
-Spends no time on their hair, period.

Most "scene" kids also wear ugly, black, nerdy glasses, often very Weezer-esque. They don't listen to a particular type of band. "Scene" kids hear one song from a band, and if it's a popular song, they say they love the band even though they've only heard one song. They're characterized by complaining about how bad their life is, writing horrible poetry, and skulking in dark areas. They also often use the phrase "Xcore" with prefixes such as "scene", "emo", and "hard".

To sum it up, "scene" kids are basically just a bunch of conformists who look exactly the same because they all dress the same and act the same.

"I love Fall Out Boy! They're so scene!"
"What's your favorite song?"
"Sugar, We're Goin' Down."
"Have you heard any of their other music?"
"No. But they still rock!"

1. Unintelligent high school age children who pretend to actually know something about music despite the fact that they have never picked up a musical instrument, nor have they composed a song in their entire existence.

They spend all of their free time outside of school at this horrid place called "the mall" doing drugs with their friends, talking to their twenty-two year old faggot ringleader while he "works so god-damn hard" at Sam Goody for $7.25 an hour. Many of them also use this time to break up with one another, cry over it, and then "lose it" in a big storm of angst-ridden bravado to impress the Sam Goody guy. see also faggot

2. People who name-drop bands but don't own any of their albums. Having them on your IPOD or burning the CD still does not count because you are a grab-ass piece of shit who will not support the artist.

1. This girl Charly and her boyfriend that I sent to the hospital. He was only 16....

fuckyouwithaknife: Really? Do you prefer G.B.H's City Baby Attacked By Rats or Ha Ha?

xIxMxQuEeRcOrEx: Uh, I just like, downloaded some of their, like songs off of the like, net because I like, saw Lars Frederiksen wearing their shirt in like, the liner notes for his like, self-titled album with the bastards. Like, Sam Goody doesn't like, carry their CDs so like, I've never like, heard those albums and stuff.
